Zusammenfassung:While some of the thirty-two speeches included here--those from Hamlet, Henry V and As You Like It, for example--are well known and favorites for audition purposes. Most are less familiar and so provide challenging new opportunities for an actor to grow. With all the chosen monologues, the author's aim is, in his own words, "to help an actor to establish a few base camps from which to scale the various mountains contained in...the work of this master playwright." He does this first by carefully analyzing the meaning of each monologue as a whole and of various sentences and phrases within it. He goes on to explain point by point everything the actor needs to know about that moment in the play when the monologue is delivered. Staff producer for Sir Laurence Olivier during the years he commanded Britain's newly established National Theatre, Donald MacKechnie worked as producer, director, and teacher in the theater for more than 40 years.
